Medical marijuana patients in Arizona have become accustomed to a wide variety of cannabis concentrates. Extracts offer added flavor, potency, and convenience for many patients, but questions sometimes remain about how they are produced. Safety is a matter of profound importance to our patients, which is why we’re excited to offer a new line of clean, solventless concentrates known as rosin.
Any good concentrate owes its origins to the cannabinoid-rich oils found in quality cannabis flowers. This is where the flavor, aroma, and potency of the plant are most pronounced. Concentrates, as their name suggests, are derived exclusively from the plant’s most desirable components. This is accomplished through one of many common extraction methods, each of which offers its own unique advantages and disadvantages.
Among the numerous options available for cannabis extraction, rosin (pronounced rah-zin) stands out due to its staggering simplicity. To produce rosin, one needs only three things: heat, pressure, and cannabis flowers upon which to apply them. The rosin technique relies on the straightforward principle that, when heated and squeezed with calculated precision, cannabis flowers will release their essential oils. These oils, when collected, offer an exceptionally pure and completely solventless extract that is ready to use immediately.
The rosin method contrasts sharply with other popular techniques that require expensive, sometimes dangerous, equipment and may produce residual byproducts harmful to patients with compromised immune systems. Furthermore, the simplicity of the process ensures that properly extracted rosin leaves the plant’s terpenes intact, allowing a full flavor profile. Patients can expect rosin to taste much like the strain it was derived from, only better. Similarly, the effect will be familiar but intensified due to the enhanced potency of the extracted material.
Whether you’re new to concentrates or an experienced fan, our staff will be happy to answer your questions about our rosin selection. We also offer a variety of affordable vaporizer pens that are perfect for maximizing the convenience and efficiency of these high-end concentrates. It’s often said that quality extracts are the future of medical cannabis and after trying a product like a rosin, you might be tempted to agree.
Rosin is available now in three strains, Durban Poison (Sativa), Flo (Hybrid), and Critical Mass (Indica).
